Ok so I'm a big fan of this author/blogger Amy Berger. She's very funny and knows her stuff especially in regards to the keto/lchf world..this is one of my all time fave blogs from her. Enjoy!

**Disclaimer, I find her very funny but if sarcasm is not your thing, you might not find her so funny lol Nevertheless, great, great blog**

Edited to add this amazing quote!
"Most important fact here: Ketones are the result, not the cause, of using fat for fuel. Ketones do not drive the process of “burning fat”; they are the byproduct of it."

    I do think she brings out two important details:
    1. Ppl shouldn't load on fat for fat's sake
    2. This diet (any diet) has a danger of obsessive types... um... rigidly obsessing.
